I am new to the turn table and just purchased a Clearaudio Concept MC 2 weeks.
Excellent trun table for the beginner, I love it.
However, when I was cleaning/dusting the rack last weekend, I accidently caught the cartridge with the microfiber towel and ripped the tip off.
The Concept mc cartridge only had about 5 hours.
I literely have tears in my eyes……….
I know…..I know….. I should have the cartridge protection cover on the cartridge while I’m cleaning.
It’s an expensive lesson and I definitely learned from what happened.
Now……I don’t know what to do.
I called my dealer and was told that bring back the broken cartridge and they will replace me a new one.
Of course it’s not free and it will cost me $500.
I need your opinion on what I should do.
1. Repair the broken cartridge?
2. Replace with the same concept mc cartridge and pay $500?
3. Look for other manufature cartridges?
I listen to jazz and vocal mostly.
Your opinion is appreciated.
